Grrr, Ed not saying Thank You

So to sum up, if the celeb...

1)Was wearing a poppy but didn't say thank you - never vote for them again

2) Said thank you but wasn't wearing a poppy - throw them off the show, the ungrateful unpatriotic so-and-so, don't they know without someone else's grandfather fighting for their freedom they wouldn't even be able to do a jerky salsa / flat footed Charleston / bounceless samba / boring foxtrot [delete as appropriate]

3) Didn't say thank you and wasn't wearing a poppy - FLOG 'EM

4) Was wearing a poppy, said thank you to camera, followed up with a handwritten notelet to every voter's home address - meh, I can't warm to them for some reason. And their pro wears funny hats.

And it amazes me that it is 'ok' to have a whole thread entitled "Grrr, Ed not saying thank you" when he isn't the only one not to do so....

My cynical brain thought that Janette may be dropping hints now to keep his hands to himself

I noticed the music was louder too, I think they were actually trying to give poor Daisy a nervous breakdown. Alijaz's celebration was very funny, he didn't seem to know what to do with himself

I don't mind the celeb not saying thank you if the pro does and vice versa. It's a thank you on behalf of the team.

Like other posters, it's the pros reactions that wind me up. Usually, my number one annoyer is Kevin!
However, it was nice to know about his supportive whispers to Louise. I mellowed after hearing that.

Something I've noticed, he can't take any responsibility for mistakes... he was the reason the lift went wrong a couple of weeks ago, yet all he kept saying was "We" have to improve... "we" went wrong.

Nah mate, your partner is a diamond you are an oaf!

I couldn't really care less about the every reaction of every celebrity and pro to every little thing.
To my mind there is way too much behavioural analysis going on. To me it is all utterly irrelevant.
All about how much pleasure each routine provides for me.

Well I follow him on Twitter and didn't get the "thank you" tweet, yes I saw the envelope tweet, but must have missed the thank you part. Even today on ITT there wasn't a word of thanks. I can appreciate the emotion of the moment in getting through, but there are plenty of chances to just say a simple "thanks" when later sitting on the sofa with Claudia or on ITT.

There was no "every, every, every" about it.

The specific complaint of those of us who have mentioned it, was Ed's inability to say "thank you" at the moment he was saved, to the only people who are keeping him in, the viewers.

^ My point was a general point about so much of what appears on the forum while considering the Ed non thank you as one example. As it happens I don't care about Ed not saying thank you any more than anyone else doing so or not doing so. To me it is utterly unimportant. If others are upset about it they have the option to not vote for him.
My point about behavioural analysis still stands both in relation to the specific instance raised in this thread and beyond

Thanks for letting us know..

But the thread is about Ed not saying "thank you,"
What you had to say wasn't really relevant to the specific complaint,

Thanks for that.

" Grrr, Ed not saying Thank You" is the thread title, but if you want to disagree, that's your privilege.

As my old grandma used to say "manners maketh the man". It's not that much of an effort to say a simple thanks to people who would have spent their money keeping him in.

OK The results are in and the following people either did not say thanks at the time their names were announced (or not) or in the Clauditorium.

Ed, Judge Rinder, Oksana Claudia, Aj

These are the facts, I'll leave you all to do the usual analysis, based on your prejudices. If anyone claims otherwise, then no doubt you will present a copper-bottomed case.

Oh and by the way, Thank you.

Earlier in a different thread having said I noticed that Ed spent too much time getting "touchy feeley" with his partner rather than saying "thank you" to the people keeping him in. I also said to be fair Rinder too did not say thank you and that Claudia looked bemused and had no idea what was happening, which was why she probably wasn't seen to say thank you, but she did say so when interviewed by Claudia.

Thank you too!
